Vidisco Guardian 17 System

Rugged, Portable, One-touch Operation

The Guardian 17 is the first military-grade portable DR system consisting of a Panel, X-ray Source and Rugged Case or Backpack. With one-touch operation and an Xsight filter for quick and accurate image enhancement, the x-ray image is captured, showing the smallest defects and delivering high resolution images for security applications immediately.  This dust and water proof system is designed for harsh field conditions. The Guardian 17 system is available in wired or wireless configurations and is ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) ready. Optional Mil-STD connectors are available.

Guardian 17 Panel

Made with high-quality, durable components, Guardian 17 system provides long-lasting performance, while requiring almost no maintenance and enables fast deployment.  This dust and water-proof panel is designed for harsh field conditions. With one touch image capture and use of the Xsight filter for quick and accurate image enhancement, the Guardian 17 Panel obtains instant results onsite with high resolution. The panel is compatible with wireless mode and is available with handle configurations. ROV ready and optional Mil-STD connectors are available upon request.

 

 

X-ray Sources

XR150

The XR150 X-ray Source is a portable, battery powered, pulsed X-ray generator, capable of penetrating at least 45mm of steel (depending on the sensitivity of the x-ray image plate used). The X-ray source requires no warmup time before use and can emit 5,100 pulses on one full battery charge. All this, in a device weighing only 2.13 kg including the battery.

XR200

The XR200 X-ray Source is a portable, battery powered, pulsed X-ray generator, capable of penetrating at least 45mm of steel (depending on the sensitivity of the x-ray image plate used). The X-ray source requires no warmup time before use and can emit 6,000 pulses on one full battery charge. All this, in a device weighing only 4.8 kg including the battery.

XRS3

The XRS3 X-Ray Source is a portable, battery powered, pulsed X-ray generator, capable of penetrating at least 80mm of steel (depending on the sensitivity of the x-ray image plate used). This X-ray source requires no warmup time before use and can emit 5,500 pulses on one full battery charge. All this, in a device weighing only 5.3 kg including the battery.
